LEgo

This is one of my favorite photographs because when I was younger, I used to buy legos all the time and play with them with my friends. Here I chose C-3PO and R2-D2, two important characters in the Star Wars saga. I have them here posed as if they are fighting. Although you cannot really see that C-3PO is holding two lightsabers (I think that's how you spell it), the reflection in the wall clearly shows that he is holding two swords. It is also comical how the little space droid is holding his ligthsaber and in the shadow, seems to hit C-3PO in the head. When I look at this picture, I see two different worlds due to the positioning of the two figures and with the help of the direct light being pointed at them. Possibly if a third party was added or a more distinguishing background was added, there could have been more effect and added more life into the picture but overall I really like the placement of the two figures in the middle of their unknown fight.
